Samsung Ultra-Slim External DVD/RW Optical Drives

Replaced by the Samsung Ultra-Slim External USB DVD/RW Black Optical Drive, SE-218GN/RSBD

Elegant, ultra-slim and portable makes the Samsung SE-218CN the only external USB you’ll ever need.

The elegant SE-218CN from Samsung is just 14mm thick and weighs less than 255g making the DVD writer so compact and lightweight that you can take it anywhere with ease. Visually, the SE-218CN matches in with the metal cover on the current Samsung Ultrabooks. The DVD writer only needs a USB port for power and data transfer. The burner writes DVDs at speeds of up to 8x and CDs at up to 24x. The DVD writer works with the Windows 7 and 8 and the latest Mac OS versions. In addition, the burner’s firmware is updated automatically when the connected PC is connected to the Internet.
